Carl Sandburg - Death Snips Proud MenCarl Sandburg - Death Snips Proud Men
Work rating: Medium


DEATH is stronger than all the governments because     the governments are men and men die and then     death laughs: Now you see `em, now you don`t. Death is stronger than all proud men and so death     snips proud men on the nose, throws a pair of     dice and says: Read `em and weep. Death sends a radiogram every day: When I want     you I`ll drop in—and then one day he comes with a     master-key and lets himself in and says: We`ll     go now. Death is a nurse mother with big arms: `Twon`t hurt     you at all; it`s your time now; just need a     long sleep, child; what have you had anyhow     better than sleep?
